An Ocean Ridge man was killed Tuesday morning when he lost control of his Jeep SUV on the 45th Street exit ramp of Interstate 95 and crashed head-on into the concrete barriers, the Florida Highway Patrol said.

William Martin was exiting northbound I-95 in West Palm Beach when his SUV veered out of control onto the shoulder of the ramp and crashed, the FHP said.

Martin, who turned 90 in January, was killed. It was not clear if he was wearing a seat belt, the FHP said.
